Prince Harry says media ridiculed Meghan for being a ‘divorcee’

• Prince Harry recalls the British media’s treatment of Meghan.
• British media criticized Markle due to her prior divorce.
• Press deemed her divorce as a “scarlet letter.”

Prince Harry discusses the humiliating headlines used by the British media to drag Meghan Markle down.

In his memoir ‘Spare,’ the Duke of Sussex recalls how his future wife was chastised for her prior divorce.

He writes: “The Telegraph entered the fray with a piece slightly less disgusting, but equally insane, in which the writer examined from all angles the burning question of whether or not I was legally able to marry a (gasp) divorcée.”

Harry continues: “God, they were already into her past and looking at her first marriage. Never mind that my father, a divorcé, was currently married to a divorcée, or my aunt, Princess Anne, was a remarried divorcée—the list went on. Divorce in 2016 was deemed by the British press to be a scarlet letter.”
